1990-91 Fred, Rich and Rob had their first writing session and the outcome was 'I'm Too Sexy'.
Having blown all their money on demo-ing ‘I’m Too Sexy’ they played the rough mix to anyone who would listen hoping for some friendly advice from EMI, Warners, Sony, Universal etc etc etc, in fact everyone passed on the song.

After months of frustration the boys played ‘I’m Too Sexy’ to an independent plugger who got lucky at Radio One with the producer of the Simon Bates show. He played 'I'm Too Sexy' straight to air and the phones (thank the lord) went crazy and the discerning people of Great Britain had spoken.
